As you all know the Liberal minority government fell last night to a non-confidence vote.

The PM is off to the Govenor General's residence this morning to disolve the Parliament and call the election.

This is the thread where we can chat about all the issues and the progress of the parties...

Are we just going to see more of the same or will see something new. Interestingly it looks like we will have one of the longest campaigns in 25 years... EDIT: Election Day was just announced: JANUARY 23, 2006).
A lot can change in the next couple months...

My best case scenario is a minority Government with the NDP holding a significant balance of power. I don't see the Liberals and the Conservatives working well together on most things but either can work with the NDP to created a working minority government.
